Our Verdict
Says first time users only, but working for people that have had Audible in the past as well. You can cancel Audible easily here (I’d wait for the credit to post first). You can also use the American Express Platinum credit to be reimbursed for the $4.95 making it even better (via the $20 streaming credit). There is also a Chase offer for 10% back if you don’t have the Platinum/have already used that credit.
I think the deal is dead now. I don’t see a $10 credit mention on the join now page. Earlier I was seeing it.
I see that on the next page though 🙂
Don’t see anything, even on next page 🙁
This membership offer is not currently available in your region.
would this work in conjunction with the $10 first time in app coupon from a week or two ago?
Not sure but the first time app coupon doesn’t work on third party GC while the audible one does.
Any confirmation that the Amex Platinum Streaming credit would work on the audible $4.95 purchase?
yes, I got the Amex streaming credit for this
There is a 10% cash back from B of A deals as well.

Audible is $7.95/month. Cancel online anytime.
Can one cancel the audible and receive the refund of $4.95? That would make it a $10 gain.
That would make you much more than just a $10!
No need to be sarcastic. You do not know what kind of difficulties other people are going through these days.
No need to be sarcastic (mean). You do not know what kind of difficulties other people are going through these days.
Hopefully the Amex Platinum Streaming credit would work on the audible $4.95 purchase
Free money is free money. But I would have been less interested if I knew it didn’t come with a credit. This is useless for me. Basically traded $4.95 for amazon credit. Fair enough.
Did they come up with new membership tiers? I used to have Gold membership with 1 credit for ~$15 per month. Now this $7.95 one seems to be one tier lower and doesn’t come with the 1 credit per month – only access to the “Plus” library.
Correct, the higher tier membership still comes with a credit, this one is only access while a member.
Thanks!
